The US dollar has resumed its downward trajectory against the Costa Rican colón, with the exchange rate in the Foreign Currency Market (Monex) falling back toward the ¢450 level.
The currency pair had previously climbed to approximately ¢454 earlier in the week before reversing course.
According to local reporting from La Nacion, the dollar's price dropped by ¢2.56 compared to the previous week's close.
This move signals a renewed strengthening of the local currency, undoing some of the recent pressure that had pushed the exchange rate higher.
The shift in the USD/CRC pair occurs as broader market sentiment adjusts to recent macroeconomic data.
The US dollar index held steady in Friday trading but remains on track for a weekly decline, driven by recalibrated interest rate expectations following softer-than-anticipated US inflation figures.
